Operation: TAG SPAM

This is an operation to remove spam tags on projects (we fixed Candy Bar 5!)

Re: Operation: TAG SPAM

Guys, I think you should talk to the creators of the projects before you start doing this. It's their choice whether they want to remove them or not. If the Scratcher is inactive, then I suggest emailing the ST about it. Otherwise, I think you should leave it alone.  smile

You can still do this, but don't force people to remove any spam tags.  smile

Yu have a point, but I thik that all users who put "Place random tags!" or something like that in their project notes should be banned.

true- the whole point of tags is to be helpful to the community and so people can find projects. "I am randomly tagging" or "Spammy Spammy Spam Spam" are not doing this  smile

Re: Operation: TAG SPAM

An idea: It may (thought probably won't) be possible to make a sensor that senses whether a tag is relevant to a project. One thing we could easily impliment is that tags have to be three letters or more. That one rule would get rid of about half of the spammy tags.

Also censor waffles due to being ultra spammed to the point is impossible to flag it.

Re: Operation: TAG SPAM

I'll help out! I think this is a problem. This is an educational site (see .edu in web adress) and 'wafflez' doesn't help anyone learn anything.
